Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

US Conference of Catholic Bishops wants 100,000 Syrians admitted to US this year

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is calling for the U.S. to take in 100,000 Syrian refugees this year alone, with no regard for the fact that the Islamic State said last February that it would soon flood Europe with as many as 500,000 refugees, or for the fact that an Islamic State operative recently boasted that among the flood of refugees, 4,000 Islamic State jihadis had entered Europe, or for the fact that the Lebanese Education Minister said that there were 20,000 jihadis among the refugees in camps in his country, or for the fact that 80% of the migrants who claim to be fleeing the war in Syria aren’t actually from Syria at all, or for the fact that German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said that the Islamic State was sneaking into the country with the refugees and was active in the refugee camps. Why would these “refugees” think they had to come to Europe on false pretenses?

Meanwhile, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is, as Ann Corcoran points out below, “NOT advocating to save the persecuted Christians of Syria through this program.” Instead, bishops such as Robert McManus, Kevin Farrell and Jaime Soto and others move actively to silence those who speak about the Muslim persecution of Christians and the Islamic doctrines mandating warfare against and the subjugation of Christians. After years of tolerating open dissent from core Church teachings, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops moves like a Stalinist regime to silence and ostracize those who dare whisper a hint of dissent from their new and ironclad dogma that Islam is a religion of peace.

To take just one of many sorry examples of how energetically they move to crush dissent on this point, on August 13, 2015, I was the keynote speaker at the annual convocation of the North American Lutheran Church in Dallas, Texas. I spoke about the global Muslim persecution of Christians. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops sends a representative to the North American Lutheran Church convocation every year. However, this year, when the USCCB found out I was the keynote speaker, they pulled their rep from the Lutheran convocation, lest anyone get the idea that the Catholic Church endorsed a truthful and accurate analysis of the plight of Middle Eastern Christians. No worries, gentlemen: no one will ever mistake you for people who are interested in telling uncomfortable truths. Watch the video of my talk here and consider that this talk was too hot for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops enforces absolute obedience to their spurious and self-defeating new dogma of Islam being peaceful in pursuit of their chimerical “dialogue”: the all-important Muslim-Christian dialogue that hasn’t saved a single Christian from Muslim persecution, or turned one jihadi into a peaceful man, but has abandoned untold numbers of Christians to their fate at the hands of those jihadis, abandoned by those who should have been appealing to the conscience of the global community on their behalf.

And now we learn what this craven behavior by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is all about. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received $79,590,512 in 2014 alone — that’s right, nearly 80 million dollars — from the federal government for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops Migration Fund. And this constitutes 97% of the budget of this corrupt and authoritarian fraternity.

Stories like this should bring down the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, but Catholics are reluctant in the extreme to criticize bishops, no matter what they do, and tend to shun those who dare to speak out anyway. But that attitude is what led to the priest sex scandals. Bishops are neither impeccable nor infallible, and it does no one any good to stay silent when they are doing actual wrong that harms the Church and society as a whole. Catholics seem to have lost sight of that. But acquiescing to evil because a bishop is acquiescing to evil is neither genuine charity nor genuine obedience.

The Church could have and should have been a voice for a genuinely charitable response to the jihad threat, and a robust defense of the value of Judeo-Christian civilization. Instead, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, wildly rich courtesy the U.S. taxpayers, rule the day, and have their man in the Vatican. Cowardice and appeasement are passed off as “charity,” even as priests tell us to “be not afraid” while they cower and quake with fear in their comfortably appointed rectories, eager to do anything to appease the jihadis and buy a few more minutes of their miserable lives.

Our reader, Mark, says he received an e-mail with a link to this site, which among other things, urges faithful Catholics to write a letter to Obama to try and persuade him to admit 100,000 Syrians PLUS another 100,000 refugees in one year.

The political and humanitarian crisis in Syria is a serious concern for the Catholic Church and the bishops of the United States. In the past five years, at least four million Syrians have fled their country as a consequence of the civil war and the rise of ISIS. Most have fled to surrounding countries, especially Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, and Turkey, and many others have moved on to Europe with the hope of finding a place of peace and safety. Pope Francis and the Catholic bishops have called on the U.S. government and the international community to provide support to both Syrian refugees fleeing violence and to countries that have been at the forefront of this humanitarian effort. These recommendations include:

I am not a Catholic and do not have actively participating Mass-every-Sunday friends, but I would bet dollars against doughnuts that our average American member of that faith is going to see this as an “No way !!! ” threshold.

Our reader, Mark, says he received an e-mail with a link to this site, which among other things, urges faithful Catholics to write a letter to Obama to try and persuade him to admit 100,000 Syrians PLUS another 100,000 refugees in one year.

It’s ideas like this that make Obama proud of pretending to be a Christian.

I do not believe that every Bishop, every church, and every priest wants or supports the refugees. I believe that they are pressured to refrain from stating this belief (as you mentioned).

I do believe that many priests, from their isolated rectories, apply the Catholic thinking of love and acceptance to the mass wave of immigrants. This type of thinking does not apply to the situation and we see evidence of this again and again and again.

The tragedy here is that the congregations are drinking the Kool-Aid. Of course parishioners are taught to walk in Jesus’ example, loving and accepting those who are “less fortunate.” Should we love and accept others? Yes. Should we help the less fortunate? Yes. Should we do so at the expense of sharia law, FGM, child rape, and the destruction of our faith? NO.

So the responsibility also lies on the parishioners to speak up and share the message of JW. It’s a long, hard, critical road.

Helping the “migrants” and allowing them to remain in their ancestral lands are not mutually exclusive. Catholics are very generous with donations for tsunamis, etc. Maybe the bishops should set the example of charity by heading mission groups to the middle east.

It’s very typical for those living off tithes and exempt from taxes, Obamacare premiums, etc. to urge acceptance of refugees, never considering that these people have forsaken refuge elsewhere and will be here permanently. The Catholic Church was the principal force in bringing Somalis and Bosnians to St. Louis, MO. Neither group has assimilated and both soak up financial freebies like sponges. I have personally printed article after article detailing the need to sponsor endangered Christians, but the Church prefers our enemies. Time to support Protestant groups like the ACLJ and Samaritan’s Purse who tend the flock.

When the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops make this call, it is their moral duty to do so *only* by also accounting for:

1) The U.S. government is insolvent, it’s out of money. Who’s going to pay for the 100,000?

2) What about black Americans? The presence of the 100,000 will harm their prospect for prosperity at the best, and crimp their claim on welfare benefits at the worst.

3) Why no distinction between Catholics and Yazidis versus Moslems, what are the Moslems running from? We all know what the Catholics and Yazidis have to fear.

4) The ruling elites, with the help of the Conference, are set to bring in 60 million Amerind aboriginals from south of the border. How does bring in 100,000 Syrians fit with bringing in 60,000,000 aboriginals?

Well, are they going to renounce their Islamic ways and integrate into American society? Are the willing to give up sharia law? How about not demanding that when a Moslem is present that all others must defer to that persons culture? Will they sign a a binding contract, saying that they agree to deportation if the violate any of the above? I don’t f’n think so! So the answer is no. Not on my nickel, or my churches ‘ nickel !

De Doc says” I don’t see how anyone can follow this corrupt version of Christianity any longer.”
_________________________________________
When it is corrupted and does not follow the teachings of JESUS CHRIST it is no longer Christianity.

Good people of the Catholic faith must fight their corrupt bishops now or their church will be dragged into the mud all the way.
For now, there are still good priests and bishops trying to do the right thing but if their voices are silenced the church is going to Hell.
Fish stinks from the head down. First this lunatic Pope must be forced to step down. Orders come from the top.
I’m sure this Pope is surrounded by yes men and traitors but it’s people who are funding the church in the end. People must demand better or they will go down with the church. I don’t think that Jesus intended his flock to commit mass suicide.

To Robert Spencer- I just read this article and watched your video in its entirety. Thank you for your service not only to the North American Lutheran Church, but to Christians and Jews everywhere, and people of other religions as well, because any person who is not a Muslim is an enemy of Islam. God bless you and yours for getting the truth out there.

Does a good shepherd bring in wolves to live among his sheep? The wolf will be true to his nature and devour the sheep whenever the urge to eat strikes. Unless the shepherd can keep the wolf well fed and trained to behave like a sheep dog, this shepherd will lose many, if not all, of his sheep. Such a foolish shepherd needs to find another line of business …. because in the end he will be forced to do just that due to a lack of sheep. Unless the pups of the Muslim wolves are taught differently they will yearn to devour the Christian lambs.

I have been banned from this site about 3 times so far for exposing conspiracy theories. Can anyone explain this other than the Globalist are out to destroy Western Civilization and replace it with Satan’s Beast’s NWO and Islam as the global religion? Surely even Billions wouldn’t sway the TRUE Vicar of Christ! No LOL!

It would be difficult to explain the various massive policies that have the effect of enabling the Muslim dream of advancing Islam over the world without some conspiracy theory involving a cabal of nefariously Macchiavellian Westerners — if, that is, one continues to indulge in the Explanatory Vacuum (of which one hallmark is that “Leftists” are the only Problem of the Problem) that seems strangely myopic to the Forest for the Trees: the Forest, that is, of a sea change in consciousness, a paradigm shift in worldview that has occurred in the modern West over the past century, whereby the PC MC memes that formerly were the province of a small minority of intellectuals have become dominant and mainstream throughout the West. As long as most in the Counter-Jihad continue to indulge in this Explanatory Vacuum, and as long as the Counter-Jihad has no counter-argument to the “Real Problemers” who keep popping up amid the Counter-Jihad, its platform (such as it is) will be vulnerable to the siren song of conspiracy theory.

Mac-101 ~ I don’t know what your conspiracy theories were, but I’m guessing they were fairly wacky. JihadWatch is trying to inform people of what’s going on with jihad. The intention is to give real information about real occurrances and the ideology that’s driving them. I imagine that when a wacky conspiracy theory post is brought to the webmaster’s attention it gets ditched so that it doesn’t hijack the thread with unprovable nonsense and distract from discussion of real issues.

Mac, conspiracy theories are a penny a dozen. But most disasters and the fall of civilizations don’t happen as a result of conspiracies, and no conspiracy is required to explain them – including the disaster that’s upon us now.

There are always ideological groups pushing for their agendas, of course. But usually those agendas don’t go as planned. Marxists expect to create a utopia of a stateless, prosperous society where everyone owns the means of production and actualizes themselves to the fullest, but because their ideology isn’t grounded in the actual nature of man, they wind up with a totalitarian dictatorship, mass poverty and gulags. The New Leftists of the 60s – the ones who, unlike David Horowitz, don’t re-evaluate their views and who refuse to give up their dedication to bringing their vision to the world – get into academia and the media with their propaganda, stupidly undermine the intellectual principles that support a free and prosperous society (because they’ve already corrupted their own good sense) and, expecting to bring equality of condition to everybody and peace through blind acceptance of all cultures as equally valid, they open the door for a particularly destructive culture (Islamic) and give it a foothold in the semi-free world. Do you think the people pushing for masses of Muslims to be admitted into the West believe that they’re endangering gay and women’s rights and freedom of religion and setting the groundwork for bloody clashes? I don’t.

Contrary to the grand conspiracy theory where some group or groups get together over time in order to engineer the destruction of a whole civilization, the looming disasters we face today are not the result of some cabal of powerful individuals or groups whose aim it is to gain power over the earth. These disasters are the result of short-sightedness and false, irrational ideas aiming for utopias that have no foundation in the nature of reality and therefore can only go wrong. And that happens because human beings don’t automatically know what’s true and what’s false and can make horrible errors of judgment, be fooled by wishful thinking, or can even pursue a destructive course out of a perverse hatred of the less-than-perfect humans that refuse to conform to the hater’s ideal.

It happens because false ideas about reality lead to bad decisions that lead to a whole network of unintended consequences.

There are a myriad of groups in the world, each with their own aims that clash with other groups’ aims. Some of them join up with each other, then betray each other, then fight each other, etc., etc. And altogether it moves in some direction, but intended designs tend to get blown to bits in this volatile mass of human clashes.

And yet people look at it and try to work out how the consequences of all these clashing ideas and actions have been deliberately engineered by some powerful bunch who intended it to go exactly this way, like gods directing the universe.

Can anyone explain this other than the Globalist are out to destroy Western Civilization and replace it with Satan’s Beast’s NWO and Islam as the global religion? Surely even Billions wouldn’t sway the TRUE Vicar of Christ! No LOL!
………………………..

Yes, this is tedious–and more to the point, wrongheaded.

Most of these foolish bishops are urging increased Muslim immigration for the same reason that so many ordinary people in the West are doing the same thing–because they mistakenly believe that these dangerous Muslim invaders are instead just needy refugees.

Does Mac-101 genuinely believe that ordinary Germans welcoming Syrians at train stations are all ‘international Banksters bent on eradicating Christianity’?

The fact is that this Muslim incursion is being aided by a very decent Western trait, shared by Christians, Jews, and secularists–that of aiding those in need, especially those fleeing violence.

Many urging this help simply cannot believe that such needy people could represent a threat.

This is a *huge* problem–but it is not helped by falsely characterizing these suicidally naive but mostly well-meaning people as deliberately intent on destroying Western civilization and establishing Islam as a global religion–and that some shadowy figure is paying them to do so.

Nobody is saying that ordinary people are trying to destroy the west. Ordinary people are clueless about what is really going on because most get their information only from MSM. Most don’t come to sites like this one and MSM are lying to them.
You will find that 1% of people on top own almost everything of value. If they control the media, politicians, banks and yes, entertainment then it’s easy to keep masses in the dark and offer them rubbish instead of the truth.
This 1% are the people destroying the west and replacing it with useful Islam. Useful to them that is because Islam is the only perfect vehicle with which to enslave the masses.

Yes; the conspiracy model basically asserts the West is hopelessly compromised with evil; and divides that problem up into 1) a cabal of evil Elites, and 2) a mass of stupid sheeple being led by the nose by #1.

If that’s what the West has shrunken into, what’s left worth defending, one wonders…?

Jesus Christ always spoke the Truth. He said of God’s Word, “Your word is truth.”

These Catholic men who have said they are shepherds of the flock of God, and are advocating that hundreds of thousands of…mostly men…moslems be brought, a into the country, when they have to be aware that many are already working directly for isis, and many thousands more will soon be on the isis payroll, are not being truthful.

They are not speaking the truth, not advocating for the truth, and are working against the truth. Their actions and their words remind me of what Jack Nicholson said to Tom Cruise in the line played over and over.
These Catholic men just can’t handle the truth. They can’t be trusted to do what is right, moral, and just.
There are words…even in the Bible…for people who take bribes to do what they know is wrong.

And I am sure that if the relevant authorities went to Barnabas Fund, to Sister Hatune, and other reputable organisations and persons (e.g. Canon Andrew White, the ‘vicar of Baghdad’) who have been dealing with the indigenous Christian communities of both Iraq and Syria for *decades* and know who is who and know where to *look* for the Christian refugees (most of whom are *not* in UN camps, because the Muslims there have attacked them and driven them *out*), every one of those 100 000 places could be filled with a bona fide Christian who would be genuinely grateful to be allowed into the USA and would cause no trouble whatever in future.

Many Christians in Syria are eastern-rite *Catholics*…that’s what makes this even sadder, that US Catholic leaders and official bodies are not speaking up on behalf of those within their own branch of the church.

The present day Catholics don’t remember Pope Urban II and what he did for them or they would all be Muslims by now. Even now I don’t understand why this generosity towards Syrians most of whom are Muslims and no sympathy for all the christians being murdered and raped by Muslims? May be the Catholic bishops have converted to Islam? Is this possible??

The refugee program is a huge dollar amount for the churches, it does not however make it the right move to bring in these people whom also bring crime, disease, expectations to bend to Islam and so forth.

Time to end all immigration/refugee programs, send back these people & have the church pay for it, these refugees likely do not see much of the monies given anyways. Shut down all immigration for the next 50 plus years and then have stricter enforcement laws.

All of this makes me wonder how it’s going with that pro-Moslem Institute the Kroc family endowed at Notre Dame. You remember, the one where the first professors hired had terror links. Shouldn’t the Fighting Irish be in the dance line with this kneel-and-spread-your-cheeks Kabuki? The football team has fallen on hard times lately, they should hitch up with the hottest property out there: Islamic expansionism. The feds have, so why not a private college? Great way to pump up the prestige and get more federal gubmint grants.

That would be “The Kroc Institute for International Peace”. The name, perhaps, says it all…

Ebrahim Moosa, one of many Mohammedans employed there, is Professor of Islamic Studies. He teaches something called “Contending Modernities”–I suppose enslavement and genocide in the Islamic State are among those “modernities”…

He recently co-authored a book entitled–I kid you not–“Muslim American Terrorism Since 9/11: Why So Rare?”

What other demographic group has been responsible for so much terrorism? And recall that they comprise *under 1% of the population in the US*.

Traitors! They should all be excommunicated! Yea, I know – this is impossible: it is THEY who control the RCC and decide whom to excommunicate. Obviously, is is highly unlikely that they will excommunicate themselves…

They would not need to do anything if the good Catholics left the church in disgust. No members to take money from so no church in the end.
I am sure there are plenty of good Bishops left to set up a new Catholic church and attract all the good Catholics back to that church.
I know, it’s just a dream. Most Catholics don’t even know what’s going on in the Vatican.

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops is a national disgrace. One either knows this or should know it.

What a collection of mediocrities, enablers of evil and self-promoting careerists this current bunch is (with a few exceptions here and there). Were I a devout American Catholic I would have to wonder what the Lord was up to——and such wondering would be way beyond the “Lord works in mysterious ways” argument, which is in reality so many times just an excuse masquerading as an argument.

Yes, American Catholics, what’s going on here? You have a fool for a Pope and fools aplenty in the church hierarchy, in America and elsewhere. Yes indeed, what is going on?

@Wellington
“Yes, American Catholics, what’s going on here? You have a fool for a Pope and fools aplenty in the church hierarchy, in America and elsewhere. Yes indeed, what is going on?”

Aye Wellington, good question. The follow on observation is that we have a fool for a President and fools aplenty in our government – what’s going on America?

And while I agree with graven that many at the lower levels are just well meaning ignoramuses; how to explain the UNIVERSAL willful, self-destructive ignorance in the leadership of Western Civilization?

I find myself thinking that God requires honest men and women to stand up and speak the truth and if enough of us don’t, humanity will suffer the slavery and tyranny of Islam for a thousand years.

Of course, after we marvel at the wholesale betrayal of our leaders, both secular and religious, and wonder as to the cause, our course of action remains the same – quickly educate as many of our fellow Infidels as possible about Islam.

Pope Francis explicitly encouraged Europe [and the U.S.] to take in these so-called “refugees”, under the guise of “compassion” and “social justice”. Moreover, Pope Francis has had this to say about Islam:

1. “Authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence” [Evangelii Gaudium #253][November, 2013].

2. “Islam is a religion of peace, one which is compatible with respect for human rights and peaceful coexistence” [Religion News Service, December 23, 2014].

Read those two statements again slowly to yourself and let them sink in. Then ask yourself just how ignorant of the theology and history of Islam a person would have to be to make such statements.

Now here’s the kicker. He is the pope, the leader of the world’s largest single religious denomination.

This Pope is from Argentina. It is VERY LIBERAL there. In the early 1900, same sex was already very common and in the open. It’s another reason why he won’t openly condemn it. He’s used to it. He won’t openly advocate for heterosexual marriage so as to not offend homosexuals.

Obama had him meet with homosexual couples and he also secretly met with Kim Davis but he never stood up for Biblical marriage. Instead he talked about OUR immigration plans to include MORE ILLEGALS and REFUGEES and spouted the LEFTIST gloBULL warming crap that is not based on science but rather wealth redistribution ideology. He should have left OUR immigration issues alone and said nothing about junk science and stood UP for heterosexual marriage. He lives in a bubble and has no clue about reality and other issues ….

Pope John Paul kissed the Koran. I’m quite sure Catholics and others can co-exist with Muslims but the problem is MUSLIMS under ISLAM can NOT do this. You are not going to LOVE THEM INTO SUBMISSION. Their ideology is pure evil. They see this “tolerance” as WEAKNESS because we are NOT stating the truth about their ideology.

There is a perception among theologians that if you treat people one way, they will react in kind. So, if you treat people fairly, they will do the same for you. This is like Socialism. The theory is simple, and beautiful, but it does not work, without the spilling of a lot of blood. Even then, there is a corruption of the human nature that will not allow it to endure.
It is mandated in the Koran and Hadiths that non-Muslims pay a jizyah. This is a tax imposed by Islam on non-Muslims living in Muslim lands. It is a fact of life and people have paid it for years. Israel recently gave Jordan a bunch of helicopters to fight insurgents. I say “gave” because they don’t want anybody to say they were paying this coexistence tax.
The Pope lives in an artificial world. He is the head of a church. What does he do for a living? He pontificates is what he does. He is just a tittle head. His words have gravitas with Catholics, but so does the Dali Lama. But, there is a difference. They could both get a Nobel Prize, for doing nothing. But neither could claim moral responsibility for everything. Don’t ask the Pope about birth control, homosexuality, family dynamics, and most important, about human nature. He has no experience in those areas. These men are revered, but that does not make a person infallible.

Very good post! I am Catholic and I cannot believe a Pope could be so ignorant on Islam either. I did have a heated discussion with a priest in my parish when he said, “We all pray to the same God”. I told him I totally disagreed with him and he got very angry. A while later, i had another priest parrot the same mantra. I did not correct him on the spot but have given him info that refutes that false mantra/premise. The allah god of the Quran (Muslims are supposed to believe that the Quran is the allah god’s word to Muhammad, unwitnessed) says that Jesus never claimed to be the Son of God or that He died on the cross, plus the hate filled violent teachings are 180 degrees opposite Christ’s teachings in the Gospels.

This is a matter of perspective. The monotheistic idea is that there is but one God. But, is he really Jesus? Did Jesus say he was the son of god? I don’t think so. It was assumed and taught that he was, but he never said so. And, Jesus was not about starting a new religion. He was a Jew, and believed in the same god as the rest of the Jews. It isn’t till Islam that we are taught that god had other plans. So, we are left to ask, “Is this the same god”?

Does one god preach a message to Jews and Christians, and another concept to Muslims? I doubt it. There is only one god, as far as I am concerned, but his message is translated differently, as man is the one who is translating it. Your priests are awfully naive if they confuse the two messages. And, all of the messages are written by man, not god. They are that mans attempt to tell god’s narrative. Some conflict, but they are from men, and men have learned from other men. While we all talk to god, who knows who god talks to? Because he got a message from god, do we have to believe him?

The hell with what the pope wants. All these liberal leaders are going to get us killed if we don’t step up and say; “enough is enough” ! It makes no sense to talk any more they don’t get it. Those of us that do should get ready for the war coming here.
Sorry it wasn’t what we wanted but that’s the way it is. We the people need to be ready and able to fight for our country and our very lives. thank you tom from Minnesota

… why wouldn’t Catholic bishops tolerate Islamist hatred and violence… they certainly had no qualms about tolerating and perpetuating child sexual abuse… they have no credibility outside the Catholic Church, and probably not much more inside of it… holier-than-thou hypocrites, they are…

Keep in mind, that we are ALL imperfect and that includes the Pope. Measured against God’s yardstick we ALL fall short. Measured against a HUMAN yardstick some do better than others. I am not Catholic but I have dear Catholic friends. They are ashamed and embarrassed at the abuse you refer to. It doesn’t represent them and they reject it. The problem was that church leaders simply shifted the priest to another church and he continued the abuse elsewhere instead of reporting the person to the secular authorities for trial and punishment. All I can say is try not to broad brush ALL Catholics as being “hypocrites”. I have my differences in beliefs and I could never be a Catholic but I know some wonderful Catholics that are good people – even though we have our differences in belief. I will let Christ sort all that out when He judges ALL of us.

I am Catholic and it seems these issues will divide the Catholic Church. It is difficult for me to believe they and the Pope can be so blind on Islam, and yes, the pedophile handling was repulsive. At first, I did not believe it since I went to a Catholic School for the first 8 years and did not see any signs of this and the Nuns were good teachers. After the scandal, I look at every priest and try to evaluate his sincerity in the Gospel message. This is really tearing me apart. I will always follow Jesus Christ but can’t say I’ll stay in the Catholic Church.

It’s unfortunate that the head of the Catholic Church is a corrupt man and he is obviously surrounded by more corrupt men but there are still many wonderful priests in there too. How much good they can do is yet to be seen but I fear it won’t be much at all as they hae to follow instructions from the Vatican.
In order to save the church there might have to be a split. I am quite sure that most Catholics will want to get away from these corrupt people and will be ready to follow the new order.
Unfortunately the less educated ones living in poorer countries without means of getting the truth will remain loyal to this mob.
The corruption might be so bad that even if this Pope died they would elect someone just like him again.

Speaking as an ultra-conservative Protestant, I think that the USCCB constitutes the leadership of America’s largest modernist denomination.

I’d be all for admitting a large number of Syrian Christian refugees. Unfortunately, as people scared of using UNHCR camps (where they are victimized by Muslims), they are not covered by policies that the USG follows. Hence, there should be a lot more lobbying on behalf of this population, and recognition that UNHCR does not necessarily find everyone who is in serious trouble for a non-offense.

My own impression of UNHCR, gained when I worked in Bangkok years ago, is that it is staffed primarily by Western European bureaucrats who are allergic to serious work, and for whom vulnerable populations might as well be so many cast iron trivets.

‘Priest’ is a great job. You don’t have to labor, other people support you, you are looked up to, and you get to dress up in fancy uniforms, and parade around like like a King….Serious ego tripping…. The ‘holier than thou’ crowd are experts at ‘shock and awe’…I am often shocked and in a state of awe with some of the stuff the religious elite come up with. ‘Love thy enemy; can be carried as a banner, just so far. Eventually you will run out of cheeks, you only have four of them, and the third one is nearly worn out…

The overwhelming silence from the Catholic faithful regarding the Bishop’s pro asylum position speaks to the nature of Roman Catholicism. Roman Catholicism is authoritarian and imperial. The opinions of the hierarchy ARE to be affirmed by the Catholic faithful according to RCC dogma. Roman Catholicism and the Vatican have been anti Israeli and Pro Palestinian from the beginning of the issue. The Vatican took 40 years to even recognize Israel as a legitimate state, yet they are the first to recognize the murderous, cleptocratic Palestinian regime. The Roman Catholic Catechism (841) teaches that “together with them (i.e. Muslims) we adore God.” Thus, rather than the correct Christian response to Islam being that Islam is a complete and errant rejection of the Son of God who was crucified for our sins, the Roman Catholic Church legitimizes Islam and in many cases, from the very top, they affirm Replacement and Fulfillment theology.

The Pope is safe and secure behind heavily guarded walls and like all good politicians who advocate for Islam, he lies thru his pearly whites. Wearing the beneficent expression of a kindly grandfather, Francis lies with impunity, even using the same victim narrative as that of jihadists seeking to take over the culture.

Just as sinful are the Catholic bishops who have shown themselves to be hirelings who care nothing about their persecuted brethren in the Middle East. Instead of fighting for refugee status for those Christians around the world who are living a nightmare, they side with the Muslim Freddy Kruegers who are causing the nightmare.

Clearly, the Roman Catholic Church is being led by impostors, posers, who brazenly lie to their flock without fear of the God they profess to worship. They’re NOT the disciples of Christ and are in need of salvation because Jesus says so. He tells us that we can know the genuine Christian by their fruit and their love for Christians.

He said in Joh 13:35: BY THIS shall all men know that ye are my disciples, IF ye have love one to another.

Luk 6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Luk 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
Luk 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
Luk 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

Appeasing Islamic world has always been COUNTERPRODUCTIVE. Even Catholic church think tank agrees on that. These guys are hell bent on going against commonsense, latest church strategy and justice which is becoming very uncommon. They are outright stupid and evil.

The whole world should thank Canadian PM Stephen Harper for his bold stand of admitting only persecuted Christians, Ezdies, and other REAL REFUGEES into Canada. It is the Sunni Muslims, who run the Islamic State, who behead Arab Christians and Ezdies and at the same time, they are in forefront in posing as bogus refugees. They wear fashion designer clothes, and pretend as refugees. They want to somehow enter Christian west Saudi Arabia is instrumental in sending only Sunni Muslims as refugees to the west– just to spread Islam in the Christian world. .Germany, Norway and Sweden will realize their mistake soon, but it will be too late..

Malachi Martin seems less like a novelist every day. The Catholic Church deserted her flock with Vatican 2. It has descended into corruption at an accelerated rate from that point on. The SSPX and the sedevecantists have it right about the modern church unfortunately – it is apostate and a seat of harm.

Yes; the conspiracy model basically asserts the West is hopelessly compromised with evil; and divides that problem up into 1) a cabal of evil Elites, and 2) a mass of stupid sheeple being led by the nose by #1.

If that’s what the West has shrunken into, what’s left worth defending, one wonders…?
========================
The west is worth defending. We can’t give up. If the west is gone, what’s left?

“There’s nothing called a radical or a moderate form of Islam,” Choudary replied. “A woman is either pregnant or not pregnant. If you abide by Islam you will follow what is in the Koran and in the traditions of the Prophet. And quite frankly, you will never find anything that I say which does not have Islamic basis.”

An Islamic caliphate would implement Sharia in the United States: “You don’t have a choice, it’s coming to you in America.” He is a Muslim imam at a mosque that is credited with having radicalized Abdel Bary, the British rapper accused of beheading Foley.

Sadly many Muslims, and useful idiot type apologists, have been deceived. There are two principles used by Islamic scholars to explain how to properly understand the Quran. ‘Progressive Revelation’, which means that when the words of the Quran were first given to Muhammad, he, like any other man could not grasp or understand the whole of it at one time. It had to be given to him a little at a time then when his wisdom had grown and matured he was given further revelation. The second principle is ‘Abrogation’, meaning that whenever any seeming conflict is found between different passages in the Quran, the newer passage nullifies the earlier. What is most important to know in using those principles is how the Quran progresses and changes. In the earlier years when Muhammad was in Mecca, before his brethren sought to take his life because of his blasphemous beliefs in “one God”, his writings, the Quran reflected and contained most of the verses of peace that are so often quoted. Later, when he fled for his life, the Quran became increasingly violent and destructive. This is where it gets very important. Since that time, Islamic Scholars have used those very same principles in educating the Muslim masses. At least initially all receive instruction primarily from the passages of peace. It is only those who display maturity in their understanding that are then given that further wisdom leading them into Jihad.

If you truly wish to understand Islam simply reading the Quran itself is not sufficient, you must read a book titled, Reliance of the Traveler, (‘Umdat al-Salik) written by Ahmad ibn Naqib al-Misri (d. 1368). This volume, translated into English by Nuh Ha Mim Keller, is called the Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law, and it bears the approval stamps of Al-Azhar University in Cairo and the U.S. International Institute of Islamic Thought. While this volume represents Shafi’i school of Islamic law, it is identical with 75 percent of the provisions of the other three Sunni schools of Islamic law. It is THE authoritative Hermeneutical text on Islamic spiritual law used in Madrases and Islamic universities world-wide. In it you will learn that those named as terrorists, Jihadists, are the ones following Islam best & most accurately, and those the world calls moderates are actually apostates to their “religion”. This is also why we see so much Muslim on Muslim violence around the world, each separate group believes they are more spiritual than the others so according to Islamic spiritual law, not only do they have a right to punish the others, but if they wish to remain true to Allah, they MUST punish the others – in effort to bring them back to the fold of course

It does not matter what you or I think the Quran says and it matters little more what any one Imam or Mosque teaches, what matters is that every single day more than 80% of the Imams and Mosques and virtually every Islamic university in the world teaches from the book I cited. They teach & preach strict unwavering adherence to Sharia, they teach the entire world under a reestablished Caliphate, they teach every last person on the planet forced into submission to Islam and Allah.

It is the height of ignorance to think that the violent acts of radical Islamists can be divorced from their religious ideals, an ideology ingrained in the core of Islam itself.

So this Pope and these Bishops really frighten me and conjures up images of Jim Jones and Jonestown, Guyana. Don’t drink the kool-aid by inviting your enemies into your country. They won’t be influenced by our kindness but will “smite the neck” that feeds them.

Also that the town of Lourdes, France where the famous Marian shrine is located is taking in CHRISTIAN refugees.

Sounds like the Catholic leadership will take in “peaceful” Christians, but it’s moslem terrorists for the laity.

But why am I surprised ? Violent Catholics from South of the Bishop And Vatican-Sanctioned Open Border are rampant. I am distantly related by marriage to the woman in the Cleveland area who was killed in her home by an illegal “with no previous record” earlier this summer. Google it if you hadn’t heard.
